However, I will agree that people who chew with their mouths open are very distrurbing and should be stopped.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
You know what I hate? People who think the subway is a good place to decide on a cell phone ring.
HR just sent me a note informing me that I have a carryover balance of 0 vacation days from 2004-05, and that according to their records, I have already used 0 of them, and that if I don't use up the rest by the end of the month, they will expire. I feel so much more informed.

I hate all you people that make the noises.
I used to have a coworker who would jingle the change in his pockets. He did it to such a degree that I wanted to pick him up by the ankles and shake the wee bastard until the mere sight of coin-operated vending machines gave him Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
How do you feel about talkative PDAs/noisy alerts/other people's music?
How talkative is talkative? I don't want to hear entire songs, but something a ring length doesn't bother me.
I read a JRD interview that was very "My old-white-man culture is under attack! Save me!" and it rubbed me the wrong way. His tone on the LotR commentaries also drives me nuts.

My officemate's computer & PDA routinely startle the living crap out of me. Admittedly, I'm jumpy. There is a reason I have the sound off on my computer.
I only threatened his stuff with a drowning when his meeting alert noise was this spooky sounding moo.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
it rubbed me the wrong way.
Yah, me too.
His tone on the LotR commentaries also drives me nuts.
Sometimes. But mostly I can overlook it--at least he's actor-complimentary and stuff. Unlike his personal views on politics and social issues.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
See the model on the bottom of this page? [link] Is it me, or is the mini-pigtail look just goofy on a guy?

"We have trust issues." Mylar
One of my co-workers had a cat's meow as the ring on her cell phone. Didn't bother me a bit, but everyone else complained so much that the poor girl finally changed it.
